This is one of my favorite books. Every single time I read it, I am shocked by the words on the page. The writing is phenomenal and the story will keep you thinking long after you're finished with it. I think it's amazing that this book was written in 1931 as it reflects so perfectly our society today.

The only thing that saved this book was the narrator. It was painfully boring at times.

I really wish I would have paid attention in school about this one. Hilarious satire lamenting consumerism and stability. Totally sad commentary on our society almost 100 years after writing.
